WALES 16-21 ENGLAND
16 in a row. Who’s next?
England are well set for a second successive Grand Slam after breaking Welsh hearts at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff this evening.
Eddie Jones’ men were 16-14 behind with four minutes to go when Elliot Daly burnt Alex Cuthbert on the outside to score in the left-hand corner.
Wales looked to have done enough after a Liam Williams try and solid kicking from Dan Biggar. England, who had Ben Youngs to thank for a first-half try, do not know when to quit and they battered their hosts under they wilted. Daly was the hero and England regain top-spot in the Six Nations championship table.
The reaction to the last-gasp win captured a gamut of emotions.
Whatever you think of @EnglandRugby they are physically and mentally extraordinarily tough!!! #topmoment
